Area Code 5662 – Nikopol, Dnipro

Overview of Area Code +380 5662

Area code +380 5662 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the city of Nikopol and its surrounding areas within the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast of Ukraine. This code is part of the national numbering plan administered by the Ukrainian State Centre of Radio Frequencies (UCRF) under the framework of ITU-T E.164. The +380 country code is used for all international calls to Ukraine, and 5662 is the trunk prefix that routes calls to the Nikopol telephone exchange.

Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction

Nikopol is a city located in the southern part of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, on the banks of the Kakhovka Reservoir along the Dnipro River. The area code 5662 covers the city itself and the adjacent settlements that fall under the Nikopol urban hromada. The region is an important industrial center, known for metallurgy and mining, and serves as a key transport hub in the area.

Dialing Formats and Caller Instructions

For callers within Ukraine, the national trunk prefix is 0. To call a Nikopol landline number from another city in Ukraine, you would dial: 0 5662 XXXXX. For example, if the local subscriber number is 12345, the complete national dialing format would be 0 5662 12345.

For international callers, the country code for Ukraine is +380. The leading trunk prefix '0' is omitted. Therefore, an international caller would dial: +380 5662 XXXXX. Using the same example, the international format would be +380 5662 12345.

It is important to note that the length of the national significant number (NSN) for Ukrainian geographic numbers is typically 9 digits, which includes the NDC (5662) and the subscriber number (5 digits). Thus, the subscriber number in Nikopol is 5 digits long. Always verify the exact number length with your contact, as local numbers may vary.

Overlay and Numbering Considerations

As of the latest updates, there is no overlay code for Nikopol; the area code 5662 is the sole geographic code for this region. However, number portability is available in Ukraine, allowing subscribers to retain their numbers when changing operators, but this applies primarily to mobile numbers. For fixed-line services, the geographic code remains tied to the physical location of the line.

Caller Guidance

• Local callers within Nikopol: In many cases, local calls may be dialed using only the 5-digit subscriber number without the area code, depending on the local network configuration. However, to ensure successful connection, it is recommended to use the full national format: 0 5662 XXXXX.
• Callers from other Ukrainian cities: Always use the national trunk prefix 0 followed by the area code and subscriber number: 0 5662 XXXXX.
• International callers: Dial the international access prefix (e.g., 00 from most countries), then the country code 380, the area code 5662 (without the leading 0), and the subscriber number: +380 5662 XXXXX.

For emergency services or special numbers, always refer to the national emergency numbers (e.g., 101 for fire, 102 for police, 103 for ambulance) which are not area-code dependent.
